Not sure about you out there but I’ve started to see a new trend in the types of gifts i received for Christmas and my Birthday. Instead of boxers and socks I recieved Giftcards.
I had received 2 JB HIFI giftcards, Bunnings, Itunes GiftCards.

I’m one of those people that are notoriously difficult to buy for and I think Giftcards fills that niche and based on the latest figures from the retail store Myer, I’m not the only one that’s looking at giftcards as gifts.

Myer has reported an increase in gift cards sales which will help generate generate sales throughout the January stock take sales period. With Gift cards becoming more convenient and accessible The Australian Retailers Association is predicting that consumers will spend 7 per cent more in the post-Christmas sales period this year than they did last year.

For those that are unsure about Giftcards, There’s a good chance that a $50 Giftcard from JB HIFI or Itunes would put a smile on anyones face, even for those who are difficult to buy for.
